Is it possible to have the ramp on the left? When parking and unloading a snow blower it looks like you would have to unload into the snow bank.

No its only made on the right. I still say that its a great product. I had a snow blower and a push mower on at the same time. I hope this help you decide

Down go the handles and a little jerk sends that snow flying. I just love this. As the snow gets higher and higher, I simply push the wolf up the existing snow banks and push all the snow right over the top. This is such an added bonus as I need to back onto a highway so need to see the road. I can easily keep the banks low enough too see oncoming traffic.

The ramp can be place on either side. There are full provisions for ramp use at both ends.

I had to "rig" it a bit to get it to work. Basically I removed the tripod, but left the connector from tripod to base of snowball. Than I placed the snowball in the mic holder it came with. It's inverted, so it hangs upside down, but works fine for me this way.

I thought that they all folded at the axle. By doing that I can fold it so that the handle lays down on the shovel making it shorter so that can fit the device in the shed all summer. If I didn't have the shed I would have folded it and then pulled the cotter pin which holds the wheel on the axle and then it could have been stored in the garage in two pieces. If it didn't fold at all it would take a lot of space when out of season. Of course if it didn't fold at all I could still pull the wheel off of the axle and store it in pieces on the wall.

You have to keep turning the knobs on the side till the handles will go down. It really does, but you have to keep turning the knobs till it does. Then you can use two bicycle hooks to hang the blower up by the middle handle bar. WE have a big blower for big snowfalls of 24 inches or so but this small one is really handy for little corners and light snow up to 12 inchesKodo

The ramps are there. This is a shot of the other side of the garage. When you look at a large picture of this view,you can see them on he first floor behind everything, on the right side. This is an awesome toy!

You are correct. The cord is a hassle. We have relegated our electric snow blower to be emergency back up (eg, if we run out of gas for the other one) because the cord is hassle.

Snow is blown forward and direction is not adjustable. Therefore, need to adjust for local winds on where to start snow clearance.

To be honest, I have not. In my case, I like to gather up a "scoop-full" and be able to slide it off to the side of my driveway as I can. In my particular case, I would not want a plow type, for the reason of putting the snow where I want. Hope this helps some.

I have a double car width driveway that fits 4-5 cars. I prefer using a 11hp gas snowblower to make quick work of it (or would even prefer using a snow shovel sled). If i had a single car driveway (or only wanted to clear space for a single car - eg. like some houses in nyc outter boroughs), this would be perfect.

If the wheel itself is not staying attached to the "AXLE", THEN IT IS POSSIBLE THAT THE "PAL-Nut" has departed for the great spring thaw....if that's the case then go to the hardware store and look in the assortments for a new PAL nut, and get on with it....If its the blue wheel adapter "bracket" is broken or missing a tab, just duct tape it to the orange hoop for now.... I've had quite a few of these products, I buy them in pairs so that I have extra handle extensions, clips and Plan "B" when its crunch time....its one of the tools in my company's snow removal arsenal, and a valued one at that....I find that they take a beating when your removing snow deeper than the hoop..(12") at a time, also if there is a layer of crust within the bottom 3" of the removal path, that also puts a hurtin' on plastic bits....we have learned how hard to push them, what their limitations are, and when to change tactics....this really is designed well, but as a maintenance tool.....its really a finish mower compared to a brush hog.

No issues here with snow being stuck in chute. Not sure what Yonathan is referring about the chute not moving. The chute is controlled by a switch on right (not left) and it has been a brutal sub freezing winter with no issues moving the chute at all. Yes, a Toro is way more powerful but it is a gas powered blower. I ditched my comparably sized Toro for the Snow Joe and couldn't be happier.

I don't think so. It needs a level straight path. It's also pretty heavy and not that easy to separate into the two sections. My wife cannot set it up. Small wheels at the bottom would be a good idea if they would contact the ground when the ramp is being removed from the top side.

Yes, it doesn't care which way you park. However, I live in a cold climate and it get very funky at times so beware.

There is a little effort required to push but should not be a problem. I have only used it twice so far but the snow blower threw about 6-8 inches of snow with ease. I have always used the electric start so I don't know the effort required for a manual start in cold weather.

good timeing to ask.its great for dry snow . when we had wet snow that was a foot or more i had to use my double stage blower. so yes i like it easyer to blow snow
